Bonds of Fusion Allies
[Spell]
Special Summon 2 or 3 non-Effect monsters with different names from your hand, Deck, or GY, whose names are all listed in 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck. They cannot be used as material, except for a Fusion Summon. You can banish this card from your GY: Fusion Summon 1 monster from your Extra Deck using monsters from your hand or field as material, and if you do, a non-Effect Fusion Monster gains the total original ATK of its non-Effect material.

It is a better Fusion Deployment but only works on vanillas. It supports mostly underpowered stuff like say
Flower Wolf (Silver Fang + Dark World Thorns) (4200 ATK Fusion)
Deepsea Shark (Bottom Dweller + Tongyo) (4900)
Great Mammoth of Goldfine (The Snake Hair + Dragon Zombie (5300)
Dragon Master Knight (Black Luster Soldier + Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon) (no bonus ATK if you fuse this way becasue it is an effect fusion monster but granted that you properly summoned both materials, you can still revive both in one go with the spell's effect)
Black Skull Dragon (Red-Eyes Black Dragon + Summoned Skull) (8300)

Keeper of Dragon Magic can search it out.

This was a sorta random idea. With Utopia Double running around as an easy 10,000 ATK monster, I figured nothing in this list of combinations in the game would realistically break the card since those are all nothing but bigger beaters just the same.

Neat! It's like an alternate version of Ties of the Brethren, but for Fusion Summoning. Also reminds me of Ready Fusion because of the types of Fusions it works with, but I like that it supports actually using them on their own merit instead of just material for something else. 

I'm not sure if there's a precedent for saying the monsters can't be used for other Material, but it's a good limitation. I think when Konami wants to do something like this typically it just limits the player to Fusion Summoning that turn (insofar as summoning from the Extra Deck). That being said, I can understand why you want it limited to just those monsters.

Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon 13500 ATK and all three of them put in GY... They love you.

Note that the card needs different material names so no, but good try.
If Blue-Eyes ever gets fused with at least 1 different named non-effect monster, it'll be able to make use of this card, but for now I made the different name thing specifically to avoid Ultimate Dragon considering how much support Blue-Eyes already has xD

Hmm yeah I am not sure on what a specific IRL example of such an effect would be in terms of the Extra Deck limitation, and I now am recalling in the past having used it in a custom card and having been told this wording isn't quite right xD

Yeah Ties is a neat card, I've used in Magnet Warrior Decks and Koaki'Meiru Rock-Type decks, and I think I've seen it used in Gadgets and Geargias at certain points. Although that card is all about getting the body-on-board setup for decks that can afford to wait a bit more, my card is meant to go straight to supporting battle xP
Yeah Instant Fusion and Ready Fusion highly encourage being fodder the vast majority of the time, especially Ready Fusion. Reminds me how back in previous years of the game, people would go all "hey do you wanna see how Dark Magician or Red-Eyes still function in the Synchro/Xyz era? look at my deck" and then those decks would just use the "Aces" as a fodder engine and nothing else. As janky as it might be, I appreciate to some degree that GX gave support to small Elemental HERO monsters like they were meant to be the bosses xD

I think I went into a tangent here, thanks for the comment xP

Ah missed that... but I found a better target. Dragoon -the restrictions of Redeyes fusion.
